STXXL : Standard Template Library for Extra Large Data Sets - 4 views

The key features of STXXL are:
...

Cancel
Transparent support of parallel disks. The library provides implementations of basic parallel disk algorithms. STXXL is the only external memory algorithm library supporting parallel disks.
...

Cancel
The library is able to handle problems of very large size (tested to up to dozens of terabytes).
...

Cancel
...4 more annotations...
Improved utilization of computer resources. STXXL implementations of external memory algorithms and data structures benefit from overlapping of I/O and computation.
...

Cancel
Small constant factors in I/O volume. A unique library feature called "pipelining" can save more than half the number of I/Os, by streaming data between algorithmic components, instead of temporarily storing them on disk. A development branch supports asynchronous execution of the algorithmic components, enabling high-level task parallelism.
...

Cancel
Shorter development times due to well known STL-compatible interfaces for external memory algorithms and data structures.
...

Cancel
For internal computation, parallel algorithms from the MCSTL or the libstdc++ parallel mode are optionally utilized, making the algorithms inherently benefit from multi-core parallelism.

« The core of STXXL is an implementation of the C++ standard template library STL for external memory (out-of-core) computations, i. e., STXXL implements containers and algorithms that can process huge volumes of data that only fit on disks. »

The structure seems obvious to system designers who have grown tired of single monolithic systems and want to break those systems up into components and services. What could be more natural than to break the system along the lines of data base managment?
...

Cancel
Unfortunately this is a huge violation of the Single Responsibility Principle — or its big brother the Common Closure Principle.
...

Cancel
These principles tell us to group together things that change together, and keep apart things that change for different reasons.
...

Cancel
...6 more annotations...
When you separate things that change for the same reasons, you have to make changes in many different places in the system.
...

Cancel
So it’s a lot of work just to get anything working.
...

Cancel
Moreover, when you group together things that change for different reasons, you expose the components of the system to collateral damage, thrashing, CM collisions, and a whole host of other problems.
...

Cancel
So what’s the solution? First of all, I question whether the system needed to be partitioned into services.
...

Cancel
Services are expensive and complicated, you should only create them if you absolutely need to. It’s always easier to live in a single process. Remember Martin Fowler’s first law of distributed objects: Don’t distribute your objects.
...

Cancel
Many systems could be streamlined, and development made much faster, if the system designers paid more attention to the Single Responsibility Principle.

WOA supports the Windows desktop experience including File Explorer, Internet Explorer 10 for the desktop, and most other intrinsic Windows desktop features
- Joel Bennett on 22 Feb 12
  
  I can't decide if this is a goot thing or not. It seems like it supports the Windows desktop BUT NOT 3rd party desktop apps -- is this just because they couldn't get around to rewriting all the utility apps in Metro style (and recompiling was easier), or because they actually want to support deskop apps?

  Read this as: WOA devices are not user-serviceable, you won't be able to sideload apps, and you deffinitely shouldn't expect to be able to build your own from parts.

Within the Windows desktop, WOA includes desktop versions of the new Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote, codenamed “Office 15”. WOA will be a no-compromise product for people who want to have the full benefits of familiar Office productivity software and compatibility, an industry-leading hardware-accelerated web browser, apps from Microsoft, and access to apps in the Windows Store.
